5 Easy Big Game Bites With 5 Ingredients (or Less)

Related To:

We’re keen on great appetizers during football season, and the spread for the Big Game shouldn’t disappoint the taste buds. Whether you’re heading to a party or kicking back and wishing your team was on the tube, here are five divine dishes that you can make with five ingredients (or less!). We like things easy. Enjoy.

Mix first four ingredients together, and spread it evenly into a 9x9 baking dish. Bake at 400-degrees for 20 minutes. Serve with chips, scoops or crackers.

Easy Stuffed Jalapeños

20 jalapeño peppers, sliced lengthwise, seeds removed

1 pound of uncased sausage

8 ounces cream cheese

1 cup of pepper jack cheese

Brown sausage in a pan. Mix cooked sausage and cheeses together. Scoop into jalapeño halves, and bake at 350-degrees for 25-minutes. (Extra filling? Bake it on its own in a separate dish, and serve it with chips.)

Pizzas orders are plentiful during the Big Game, but make them on-demand at home and be able to please everyone at the party. Preheat a pizza stone in the oven to 375-degrees. Create a spread of ingredients right at a table near the TV, and invite everyone to make their own pizzas throughout the whole party. Bake each pizza until the cheese bubbles, about 10-12 minutes, and cut into slices.

Fried Ravioli Bites

1 package cheese or meat raviolis (20-24 individual raviolis)

3 eggs, scrambled

2 cups Italian bread crumbs

olive oil, for frying

marinara sauce

Separate the egg wash and bread crumbs into separate bowls. Dip raviolis in egg wash, and coat with bread crumbs. In small batches, fry raviolis over medium heat, rotating so that both sides are crispy. Cool on a plate topped with a paper towel, and serve with marinara sauce.
